Let’s play!” With all players having their own success formula and no one knowing what other players are working towards it is difficult to say in advance as to when the game will end, or exactly how. Participatory co-design of science communication strategies for public engagement in the US and Ecuador around health behaviour change The game is a very close replica of the original Waddingtons game that I also own, but with the Uranium Prospecting replaced by Computing, Hollywood by Entertainment and going to Sea by going on a Yacht. Interestingly there are still 8 career paths on the board, not the six that I have read of there being in later versions. Being a European version of the game the salaries are also all in Euros rather than Pounds. How to get your hands on Careers I believe the edition we have is the original 1955 version. There have been a number of iterations of the board game since then with different careers switched out for others (like Sports and Ecology). And if the game was remade today, no doubt there would be numerous changes.

The biggest uplift is for the ‘Would you be a scientist or engineer?’ question. As the general liking of science did not increase, this must be made up of participants who liked science, but who did not consider it as a career option. The process of playing the game improved their understanding of various STEM careers, and might have directed them towards one they had not considered. Of the 82 students who specified that they would not like to be a scientist or engineer, 22 changed their response positively, with only 5 changing their response negatively. The increase in ‘I see science in my daily life’ is an excellent outcome, as it shows that the students have an increased recognition of science in their daily lives, which we think is closely connected to the visibility of real science experiments and scientific careers in the game. Of the 30 students who did not see science in their daily lives, 16 positively changed their answer, which is an effect of 53 per cent, and there was only one associated negative answer change. Assuming the counts are independent and fall as a Poisson distribution, the standard error of positive answers to ‘Would you be a scientist or engineer?’ is 11 per cent. For ‘I see science in my daily life’, it is 18 per cent. Therefore, both results show significant signal above the noise. Set your own victory conditions!And I don’t know if it’s just the nostalgia, but I still think Careers is a great game.That aside, I do have (what I hope) is an interesting story to tell to my path. I was a professional designer in other industries (product design and architecture) for many years when a chance meeting with the CEO of a game and animation studio – who were looking to make their first board game – led me to a full-time, paid position with them. I’m now designing that first game for them, dealing with all the project management, KS strategy, manufacturing and other logistics.

An unusual feature of this game compared to more modern board games is that individual players need to record much information on their own scoresheet, such as annual salary, degrees earned and number of times occupation paths have been completed.

[ Cross Ref]There are several excellent recent examples of games which balance design and educational content, and which can serve as inspiration for future work. Carbon City Zero, released in 2019, casts players as mayors of modern English cities, tasked with the job of reducing their carbon emissions to net zero ( Possible, 2020). Evolution, released in 2014, by Dominic Crapuchettes, Dmitry Knorre and Sergey Machin, has players improving different species to cope with changing environmental conditions and potential predators, exploring an enormous combinatorial space of possible adaptations ( NorthStar, 2022). Periodic: A Game of the Elements, 2019, by John J. Coveyou and Paul Salomon, asks players to strategise by directly using the fundamental chemical principles underlying the periodic table to score different element goals ( Genius Games, 2017). The astronomy board game developed by Adriana Cardinot and Jessamyn Fairfield has players learning the astronomy topics recently introduced as part of the new Irish Science Syllabus, as well as presenting a diverse range of astronomers ( Cardinot and Fairfield, 2019). These games all utilise approaches in game design to use mechanisms which directly evoke and support the educational message they seek to deliver. Pink experience cards actually can not be used on the same turn on play on which they are drawn. They are “premiums” for your career experience and can help players plan when to enter various careers. They can be used at any other time in the game though, instead of a usual roll of the dice. They can also be bought and sold between players.
